Músicas, Filmes e Livros

Movies - if it makes the tears run down my cheecks or sit pondering afterwards it´s a winner
Music - anything that makes me dance
Books - simply a good one that keeps me up till the wee hours of the night because i can´t bring myself to stop turning the pages and put the book down

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I tend to underestimate the things i´ve done, seen and lived...yet i´ve done what maney will never do in a lifetime and have much more to do/see and accomplish...the world is a spinning globe and i´ve yet to complete the circle.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I teach for a living.
I learn as a passion.
I share because i care.
